A salad. One of the best things to eat a ton of when you want to look and feel your best. Unfortunately after slicing, dicing, chopping and picking out the freshest veggies, fruits and ingredients, most people douse it in a store bought bottle containing a ton of sugar, preservatives, chemicals, and gunk. Somewhere, a carrot is shedding a tear and organic greens are protesting.
Don’t worry a healthy, made from scratch salad dressing is one of the tastiest and easiest things to whip up.
Here are a few of may favorites:
*I really never measure anything out exactly, simply combine until it tastes right.
Honey Mustard Vinaigrette:
Apple Cider vinegar, Oil (olive, canola), Mustard, Honey, Salt and Pepper
Citrus Berry Vinaigrette:
Balsamic Vinegar, Olive oil, Crushed Rasberries or blueberries, lime juice, Honey.
Blue Cheese:
Plain Fat Free Greek yogurt, Light mayo, Blue Cheese Crumbles, a little Lemon Juice
Salsa Vinaigrette:
Salsa, Balsamic Vinegar, Canola oil, Tapatio, Lime Juice, Plain Greek Yogurt or Fat Freee Sour Cream (optional)
…Hopefully this sparks some ideas, and clears out some space where you used to have 6 bottles of salad dressing in your fridge.
